another quarter of the voters say that the budget deficit their top concern. those groups of voters said that they feel that governor romney is better positioned or better prepared to deal with those two issues. if that's the case, again, i ask why are the president's numbers so high? >> jon, this is the most mystifying thing to me, and quite frankly, it's one of the reasons why i sort of feel -- i have a lot of reservations about a lot of these polls. because if you were talking about any other time where you had unemployment as high as it is today, the debt as high, as huge as it is today, i would tell you that the incumbent was going to lose in a landslide. and i still think that maybe that may be possible. you know, we don't know how reliable these -- you never know how reliable the polls are until election day. but it's just absolutely mystifying to me. and either this guy has an amazing staying power that has never been seen in politics before, or, you know, come next tuesday he's going to get the doors blown off. jon: well, 32 years ago, october 27th in

he has a 1-point -- 14-point deficit to what the president had before. these are all indicators that this election could go in romney's favor. >> gretchen: that's the demographics. let's talk about the issues with regard to the latest polls. who do you trust to handle the economy? juan, on these four fronts, it looks like romney is edging president obama, in some cases big margin, specifically on the economy, 52 to 43 p. are you surprised at that? >> no. clearly the big issue in the election is the economy. and the strength that mitt romney has advertised all along is that he's a businessman. he knows business and he knows how to convey trust to other businessmen so they'll do more hiring with the profits they have. here is the thing that does surprise me is that given the importance of the economy, that the election is even in the fox poll and if you ask americans about the economy, what you see is that, for example, since the mid terms of 2010, the president, the assessment of president obama's handling of the economy has edged up. this goes back to wh

his oceanic self-esteem, no deficit there, he smolders with resentment that he must actually ask for a second term. >> an orgy of words. >> fantastic. i should have my daughter read it. she's getting ready for the s.a.t. katty kay, take it away. >> george will feeling in flowery form there. >> is there a point there? >> one, he seems to be saying that president obama has a character issue that he doesn't like, that there's a certain arrogance there, that he doesn't feel that he has to actually go out and campaign. and we saw that in the first debate. we saw some of that to get involved in the politics in the first debate. if you ask people around washington, one of the character flaws that they will point to about barack obama is that there is a certain distance and a certain arrogance. but i think the first point that he makes that the president hasn't done anything, i just don't think that's true. it's very hard to look at this president's record and say that he's done nothing. first of all, there was health care reform. you may not have liked it, but there was certainly a reshuffl
